Kinetics of the marcasite-pyrite transformation; an infrared spectroscopic study
TL;DR: In this article, the second-order Johnson-Mehl equation was used to model the formation of pyrite in the marcasite matrix. But the authors only used infrared spectroscopy.

Experimental study of the formation of chalcopyrite and bornite via the sulfidation of hematite: Mineral replacements with a large volume increase
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the synthesis of chalcopyrite and bornite at 200-300 °C under hydrothermal conditions. But they did not consider the control of reaction pathways onto the final mineral assemblage.

On the nature of the martensitic transformation
TL;DR: In this paper, it is suggested that the transformation originates in lattice vibration modes, and that once initiated it proceeds adiabatically with no discernible division into nucleation and growth.

Pressure effect on polymorphous crystallization kinetics in amorphous selenium
TL;DR: The polymorphous crystallization kinetics of a melt-quenched amorphous selenium (a-Se) under pressure was investigated by using a piston-cylinder pressure vessel over a pressure range of 0.0 -1.0 GPa as mentioned in this paper.
